Documentary film has always been a powerful cinematic genre that attempts to catch "life as it is". With the advent of digital video, and now YouTube, the market is opening up for documentary films to translate our insights about the world around us into compelling and moving moments in less than 10 minutes. See this YouTube video found via Chris Griffen. Chris talks about how video makes our ideas more compelling. To me it is also the opening up of a huge micro-documentary market that is only beginning to challenge our thoughts and change our thinking.
